ITBusiness.ca will once again be sponsoring the the Canadian Computer Charity Golf Classic on Sept. 1, 2004.

Now in its 20th year, the event is a premier golfing tournament that brings together the computer industry to help raise funds for two worthy causes.

The first is The Easter Seal Society, Ontario which helps children, youth and young adults with physical disabilities. The second is the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation for Cancer Research. Since its inception, the tournament has helped raise over $2,000,000 for these deserving charities.

As well as supporting worthy causes, the Canadian Computer Charity Golf Classic offers its sponsors unique marketing and networking opportunities. Hosting over 300 golfers and representing close to 100 organizations from Canada’s technology sector, the tournament sells out every year.

Participants will enjoy playing at Angus Glen Golf Club located in Markham, Ontario. Angus Glen is designed and groomed to excite every level of golfer and offers its guests one of Ontario’s finest golfing experiences.

Besides great golf, participants will enjoy lunch, dinner, entertainment, a silent auction, a live auction and a prize table. Sponsorship opportunities are still available.
